I shoot bismuth so I�m not overly worried about the barrels and will either open them up or install tubes. That said, are these guns strong and dependable?

OP Wiredducker Sidelock Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 65 Indiana	Thanks for the feedback. I love the idea of the �heavy duck� for waterfowl. I might even pick up the light duck as well. I was also looking at the PArker Repro steel shot gun but that�s a pretty good step in price. Kevin "Life's too short to hunt with an ugly gun"

I have been happy with multiple Miroku made Brownings (but have never owned an Olin-Kodensha gun) so I guess I am a fan of Japanese guns. Last edited by Dan S. W.; 06/26/18 10:54 AM.
